Our day started early. The whole class was in the kitchen by 5:00 am. Everyone seemed fairlycalm, though we definitely had our game faces on. I felt like we had all the time in the world to get everything out and ready. The time flew by and we were cranking to put the finishing touches on our dishes and get them out on time, along with getting the kitchen cleaned up and presentable. (Thank you Laurie!)
Our guest, about 100 of our family and closest friends, along with the PCI administration staff, were expected at 10:30 to view and taste our creations.
We had prepared over a thousand "bites" from about 45 different recipes. This was
on top of the terrines, galantines and mousselines. Pork bellies and grilled sausages. A Nicoise Sala
d platter, a Caesar Salad station, a fresh oyster station, an 
assortment of breads and cheeses and a scattering of desserts. We had a great turnout. Maybe a little too great. It was a feeding frenzy! The food was Houdini food. 
Now you see it, now you don't. All our set up and hard work was gone in a flash.
Our party was a success.
I think Chef was proud and we were definitely a happy class.
A great day.
Goodnight.

The food was unbelievable. I loved it all but the duck shooters were the best. The asparagus was fantastic.
You worked so hard and I'm disappointed that chef didn't give you the day off:
( Loved his Ray Bans though)
